Public project by Daniela Comani:
IT WAS ME. DIARY 1900-1999
The artwork is a print on vinyl cloth, 400 x 600 cm. Installation: external front of Palazzo Riva Del Vin, near Rialto Bridge.
IT WAS ME. DIARY 1900-1999 presents one hundred years of history out of any chronological order presented in the first person. Effectively, Comani has written a diary of the 20th century as though all the events actually happened to her. From one day to the next, from one report to the next, she is a passive witness, then an activist, then victim, then perpetrator. In this way she is seemingly the initiator of these twentieth-century historical events.
The original text is in German: 'Ich war's. Tagebuch 1900-1999'. Translations are available in: Italian, English, French, Swedish, Chinese.
IT WAS ME. DIARY 1900-1999 exists in three versions: as big digital print on vinyl cloth, as audio-installation and as book.
Coming soon: IT WAS ME. DIARY 1900-1999 as APP for iPhone: e-art-apps.com (a project by Ivo Wessel and Gerd Harry Lybke)
IT WAS ME. DIARY 1900-1999 is in the permanent collections of the Museo d'Arte Moderna di Bologna and of the Museum on the Seam in Jerusalem.
